`
`The Court issues this Pretrial Order in advance of the Pretrial Conference scheduled for
`March 26, 2021 with respect to the below issues:
`1. The Court has reviewed the parties’ tentative witness lists, indicating both the witnesses to
`be called for the bench trial and the estimated trial time for each witness. (See Dkt. Nos.
`375, 376.) Based on a review of the tentative witness lists, the Court determines that each
`party is afforded forty-five (45) hours to be used in whatever manner they choose for the
`bench trial.
`2. The Court has further determined that it will read up to four (4) hours of deposition
`designations for each side in advance of the bench trial. The four (4) hours is determined as
`timed by the deposition (i.e. the time indicated by the deposition transcripts). Anything
`beyond the four (4) hours will be counted against the forty-five (45) hours afforded to that
`party.

`3. With respect to stipulation setting forth agreed to pretrial deadlines (Dkt. No. 377), the
`Court GRANTS the stipulation as modified below:
`a. With respect to Number 15, the parties shall provide copies of their exhibits by
`noon (12 PM PDT) on Thursday, April 29, 2021.
`b. With respect to Number 22, the parties are ORDERED to hire a retired judicial
`officer to resolve their objections, to the extent that there are any. The Court is not
`inclined to read the alleged objectionable designations only to resolve them. The
`parties are ORDERED to meet and confer to determine whether the deposition
`designation schedule must be amended to allow for a third party to resolve
`objections, if any.
`c. By noon (12 PM PDT) on Tuesday, April 27, 2021, the parties are ORDERED to
`provide deposition designations, including counter designations, with all objections
`having been resolved. The designations shall be provided in the form of one hard
`copy and one electronic version on a flash drive.
`This Order terminates Docket Number 377.
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
